"Alright then." Upon hearing Mrs. Ou’s words, Xia Chuyi sighed, gazing longingly at the kitchen. Actually, she really wanted to go in and help out.
Because today the banquet is in the military compound, those helping Old Sir Guan are all from the military kitchen.
Xia Chuyi was worried her ntor wouldn’t be accustod to it.
However, she had already decided that today she’d listen to her family’s directions throughout — after all, she’s the star of this banquet.
"Okay, let’s head out," Xia Chuyi said with a smile to Mrs. Ou, "By the way, Mom, have you had your dicinal Food today?"
Earlier, she accompanied Mrs. Ou to the hospital for a thorough check-up.
According to the results, Xia Chuyi finalized a new prescription, turning non-earthly ingredients into dicinal powder packets, which she handed to Mrs. Ou, reminding her to brew and drink them daily.
"Don’t worry, I’ve had it!" Mrs. Ou replied with a smile, "It was Lian’er who reminded to drink it."
Hearing that it was Ou Lianlian who reminded Mrs. Ou, Xia Chuyi nodded without any further comnt.
Mrs. Ou didn’t dwell on the matter either; she simply said, "Chuyi, although Lian’er isn’t my biological daughter, she’s been with for so many years. She isn’t truly bad."
Clearly, after so observation, Mrs. Ou had noticed that her two daughters weren’t very close.
Upon investigating further, Mrs. Ou found out that Ou Lianlian had troubled Xia Chuyi over Huo Shiqian in the past.
This matter had caused Mrs. Ou so dissatisfaction.
However...
Mrs. Ou glanced at Fang Caiqin, not treating her as an outsider, and directly said to Xia Chuyi, "Chuyi, to , Lian’er as an adopted daughter has received years of love from the family. Yet you have suffered outside for years. Naturally, I’m on your side."
"But Mom isn’t a heartless person who would just kick out the adopted daughter for the sake of the biological one..."
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi imdiately said, "Mom, that’s not what I an!"
Mrs. Ou shook her head and patted her hand, saying, "Lian’er told she has soone who is ready to propose."
"When the ti cos, I’ll prepare a generous dowry for him, and consider it as the closure of so many years of mother-daughter affection."
These words were almost equivalent to still "sending off" Ou Lianlian.
"Mom, I really don’t an that..." Xia Chuyi said helplessly.
Although she didn’t like Ou Lianlian, she truly had no intention of sending her away.
As long as the two of them don’t interfere with each other, that’s enough.
At that mont, hidden in the corner, Ou Lianlian clenched her fists tightly, full of hatred towards Xia Chuyi and the Ou Family.
Yet, she still had to pretend to be happy, erging from the corner, and said to Mrs. Ou and Xia Chuyi, "Mom, Chuyi, the guests have started arriving!"
Seeing her, Mrs. Ou and her daughter stopped their conversation.
On the other side, earlier when Xia Chuyi was sent away by Ou ZhenTing, Huo Shiqian remained calm the entire ti.
After all, with ti on his side, he and Chuyi would have plenty of monts together in the future. There was no need to rush and compete with the loving father.
In fact, to prevent the prospective father-in-law from rejecting him further, Huo Shiqian deliberately didn’t exchange glances with Xia Chuyi — to prevent Ou ZhenTing from feeling he and Xia Chuyi were too flirtatious.
Seeing Huo Shiqian’s conduct, Ou ZhenTing quietly nodded, thinking: This youngster has so sense at least, not currying favor with his precious daughter on purpose.
